thanks and ciao,

Its a DOS compiler "re-ordering" something thats 10 years old is out of the question. I frankly dont see why you wanna go back to dos, even if to learn game programming, since there are great books more reliavent to 21st century operating systems and software, such as Windows game programming for dummies (excellent turorial on directX5.0) and a horde of new opengl and directx7/8 books.
Why do u need to go back to such arcane times?

because i wanna learn 3d from the ground up... and i think its still fun to code dos games, although its more work... but please, i DON''T want to discuss if dos is outdated (and it is!), i just need this compiler 
The only place you have a chance to find this compiler is either on Ebay or at a yard sale. You can no longer buy the product.
Errr........ get Code Warrior or MSVC++ 6.0 and use Console Application rather than windows or MFC.. it works just as good as a DOS compiler.

Your trying to create graphical games in DOS?
I thought you just wanted to make some text based games...
Wouldnt a book about 3D game programming have come out AFTER DOS was popular? I mean... Doom was only 2.5D....
Also, isn't there any other compiler that uses DOS?
